i’m still here!
well, hello you! via GIPHY wow, even i didn’t realize how long it’s been. what’s funny is that i thought i’d be a blogging machine during this quarantine. turns out, when even less is going on in your life than usual, it’s hard to think up content. like, what is there to say? then there’s the fact that i have zero drive to do it. i think about it constantly but when it comes time to sit down and do it, there i am on the internet filling my carts on every clothing website with summer clothes that i probably won’t get to wear. or, it’s about to get reeeal…

martina is losing it #9
In a small turn of events, I actually planned to not write a post for the week before last. I knew it wasn’t going to be the greatest weigh in and I really didn’t want to over exert myself. This is basically my only hobby and I haven’t done a GD thing this summer, obviously, I need a break. Anyway, I was right, and the week before last wasn’t the best weigh in. I lost .7lbs. Don’t get me wrong, a loss is a loss, but I feel like (for me) anything less than a pound is a wasted week. I question what I did wrong, how can I lose…

i got your w(h)ine with dinner right here.
I’M HERE! I’M ALIVE! I feel like I have to make that announcement every so often because I tend to neglect this space. So maybe my announcement should be I’M HERE! I’M ALIVE! I’M A BAD BLOG MOM. (not momblog- def not one of those) Truth is, life happened. I’ve got a few things going on (that I will tell you about eventually) and honestly, that back issue I’ve been having (I talked about it a few posts ago), hasn’t gone away. It got a little better, now today it’s like “I’m here! Ready to fuck shit up”. Happy Monday. Otherwise, I’ve been OK. A little blah but OK. It…

quick chat
I was supposed to have an extremely delayed weekend recap up today but that’s not happening. I’ll just have to break that post into two separate ones, which is great for you because, more Martina! Anyway, really quickly, I wanted put something up because everyone else is in a meeting and I’m taking some me time. For the last few weeks, I’ve had a pain in my lower back that I can’t get rid of. Actually, I got it to almost go away but now its’s back with a vengence. It’s on the left side and feels like I need to be wrung out like a dishtowel. It sucks. I’ve…

fingers crossed!
GUYS, I HAVE SOME BIG NEWS! Remember a few weeks ago when I mentioned that I entered a few of my photos in to a photography contest (where I just realized almost nothing I wrote about the contest was correct. Was I even paying attention?)? Well, a few days ago I got this letter in the mail. It’s hard to read so I’ll just tell you. It turns out that on of my photos made it to the Finalist round of judging! I had to read the letter at least five times to even comprehend what it said. Even now, I still think I read it wrong. According to the letter,…

this was supposed to be a friday favorites… i don’t know what happened.
I wanted to do a Friday five post today but, to be quite honest, if I’m not at work, I’m at the hospital. Or just trying to find some normalcy in my current life situation. (did i just lapse in to a vague facebook status? sorry.) Anyway, I have a few favorites and a few not so favorites. Let’s get started. I’ll get the shitty stuff out of the way so that the good seems so much better. My father is still in the hospital (if you hadn’t guessed from the above paragraph.) Yesterday started week three. The doctors have been a little bit less elusive and a little bit…

this is what happens when writer’s block creeps in…
Let me first state for the record, that I have mentally written at least 4 posts. The problem was that I never physically wrote them down or typed them out so all of that brain energy and brilliance was wasted and now you’re stuck reading this. My other excuse is that I had a post brewing about how I heard that people have been making a big stink over Nikki Minaj’s Anaconda and Meghan Trainor’s All About That Bass, and how it’s unfair that they shame skinny girls in their songs. The problem I came across was that when I went to find the direct quote, I couldn’t find it.…
